That gun is waaaaaaaaay too light. I would rather haul around 15 or 18 pounds than need to wear a neck brace after shooting an 11 pound gun.

Why would someone build a beautiful rifle in 2000 and sell it as new in 2001?

Because it kicks too much.

Thanks Ed. I like it very much. Fully loaded, the weight may be O.K.
One could always add weight to suit.

Welcome! ... Nick

I can handle the weight I suppose, but I didn't like the grain layout..notice the magazine area. It is imparative that the grain lay stright and forward on big bores, there is more to makeing a big bore than whittling....
